S. TRANSFERS $31,700,000 TO RUSSIA'S CREDIT ACCOUNT Washington, Nov. 2.-Premier Ker- ensky's statement that America's most effective help to Russia would be sending of money, was regarded here as possibly forecasting formal request for the transportation of gold to Rus- sual value, e style.

"Have her send boots," the Premier was quoted as saying in response to a question as to how America could help best, "leather, iron, and" with emphasis, "MONEY." Tee sending of actual money out ofl the country to any of the allies would establish a precedent here and would be diametrically opposite to the Amer- ican government's present policy. American gold, officials asserted to- day, can do Russia more good if it re- mains in.this country. There is unan- imity of opinion among officials that Russia's need would have to be su- preme to warrant the actual trans- portation across the ocean of a ship- ment of American gold of any appre- ciable amount. The American government appar- ently is entirely willing to grant fur- tlher requests for credit. The Treas- ury formally transferred today to Rus- sian account $31,700,000.

Owners of war gardens write of raising a great amount of garden produce at a nominal cost. The civic association loaned land throughout the city to people who farmed their produce on it without paying for its use. These war farmers have expressed themselves as highly pleased with the results ob- tained, and have asked that the same system be employed next summer. Some of the reports are interesting in the extreme. Six members of the Ann Arbor police force who worked Ismall pieces of land in West Park., raised 210 bushels of potatoes, 150 heads of cabbage, 10 bushels of toma- toes, and 10 bushels of white turnips. Four postmen produced 17 bushels of potatoes, 200 cucumbers, 30 dozen ears of corn, 4 dozen cabbages, 2 bush- els of string beans, 1 bushel each of peas and tomatoes, a tub of celery, and a large crop of radishes. A spirited letter was received from a Civil war veteran who wrote that although he was old and feeble, he was glad of this chance to help his country and "do his bit" by growing about 14 bushels of potatoes.

In its place will spring up a discharge certificate system, oper- ated under government supervision, which will guard against incompeten- cy. The announcement comes tt the close of an investigation started early in the fall when a far reaching strike on the great lakes was iminent. Vic- tor A. Olander, secretary of the Lake Seamen's union, received a telegram yesterday from R. B. Stevens, vice chairman of the committee, dated from Washington, which said: "The shipping board has received the report of the investigation- into the welfare plan and discharge book of the Lake Carriers' association in oper- ation on the great lakes and the matter of overtime work and pay. Upon all the evidence received this board has decided that the discharge book is un- desirable and should be abolished. "The matter of overtime work and pay is under further consideration. The board desires if possible to work out and put into effect a plan for tak- ing up and promptly adjusting any grievances as they may arise. The board believes that the Lake Carriers' association, the shipping companies who are members of the association, and the men who are employed on both classes of boats have an interest in the decision of all the above mentioned matters." GIRLS TO SUPPLANT MEN AS RAILROAD EMPLOYES San Francisco, Nov. 2.- Girls are gaining on men at the school of rail- roading maintained by the Southern Pacific at its Third and Townsend sta- tion. Four months ago one girl and forty men were learning to be station agents there. Now there is a class of eighty, and sixty are girls. Miss Maude L. Ferguson, the one girl of the first group, is now station agent at Acampo, where she is hie- graph operator, checks baggage, sells tickets, and flags trains. The girls are given training for posi- tions as clerks, telegraph operators, and station agents. They work half the day and study the other half, and are paid $30 while they are attending the school. Miss Ferguson started work at a salary of $90, but the aver- age for beginners will be $75 ITALIANS RUSH TO COLORS IN REBIRTH OF PATRIOTISM Rome, Nov. 1.-Italy is undergoing a rebirth of patriotism. Everywhere men are clammering to go to the front. Even the Garibaldi veterans have marched in a body to offer their lives on the country's altar. Thousands of younger veterans of the present war interned in hospitals, or invalided home, are insisting upon returning to their commands. The troublemakers ,who two weeks ago said they were tired of the war and who were willing to listen to German agents, now either are in hiding or are hastening to ad- mit that they were mislead.
